A customer brought their 11th Gen Intel Core i5 Lenovo ThinkPad T14 to NCR Computers in Sterling, VA, after multiple known-good chargers failed to resolve the problem.

Our motherboard-level testing uncovered a shorted MLCC capacitor on the 1.8V USB-C controller power rail. Using precision micro-soldering, we replaced the faulty component and restored the missing voltage.

The result? The laptop powered on and started charging again — without replacing the entire motherboard.

At NCR Computers, we specialize in advanced laptop motherboard repair, USB-C charging faults, power circuit repair, and precision micro-soldering.

A customer traveled from Washington, DC, to NCR Computers in Sterling, VA, after finding us through Claude AI while searching for help with his RTX 3080 GPU that suddenly died during gaming.

He called and asked, “𝗠𝘆 𝗚𝗣𝗨 𝗱𝗶𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝗴𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴. 𝗖𝗮𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗶𝘅 𝗶𝘁?”

Absolutely! We specialize in advanced, component-level GPU repair, including precision micro-soldering for complex graphics card failures.

Our testing revealed an internally shorted VR MOSFET driver IC that prevented the RTX 3080 from powering on. Fortunately, we had the replacement chip in stock. We replaced the faulty IC using precision micro-soldering, and the graphics card came back to life!

We then performed GPU stress testing and benchmarking to verify functionality, power stability, and thermal performance. We also checked for thermal throttling. The RTX 3080 passed testing and was fully functional.

RTX 3080 not powering on? GPU crashing or overheating? Before replacing an expensive graphics card, ask about component-level GPU repair.

NCR Computers repairs GPUs, gaming PCs, gaming laptops, and gaming consoles in Sterling, VA, serving Northern Virginia, Maryland, Washington, DC, and the greater DMV area.

This Dell Alienware R12 gaming PC came to NCR Computers in Sterling, VA after a BIOS update appeared to start automatically. The system restarted during the update and then lost all video output.

The customer tried Dell’s BIOS recovery process using a USB flash drive, but it didn’t work. After another local repair shop couldn’t resolve the issue, a friend who had previously trusted NCR Computers referred him to us.

We also identified an SSD-related fault contributing to the motherboard failure.

We explained the repair options to the customer. Since the PCH required advanced board-level repair, he decided to replace the motherboard.

We installed the new motherboard and completed benchmarking and full stress testing to verify the system was stable and operating properly before returning the Alienware R12.

If your Alienware or Dell gaming PC has no display, BSOD, a no-power issue, or fails after a BIOS update, NCR Computers provides advanced motherboard repair, component-level repair, and board-level troubleshooting.

A customer found NCR Computers in Sterling, VA through Google after his HP Envy PC suddenly shut off and would not power on.

His biggest concern was his data.

Because the system used BitLocker encryption, preserving the original motherboard was especially important.

Our technicians performed a motherboard-level power-sequence diagnosis and traced the missing RTC power requirement to a microscopic 0402 pull-up resistor that had failed open.

Using precision micro-soldering, we replaced the failed resistor and thoroughly retested the motherboard.

A customer brought this Ryzen 7 X870E gaming PC to NCR Computers in Sterling, VA after experiencing thermal throttling and excessive heat.

During testing, we found the PC was running unusually warm even at idle:

🔥 CPU: 48°C
🌡️ Motherboard: 37.5°C
⚡ MOS: 35°C

We also discovered a major chassis airflow problem.

All 9 case fans—3 bottom, 3 side, and 3 top—were running continuously at full speed and pushing air into the case. With little dedicated exhaust airflow, hot air had very limited paths to escape.

𝗪𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝗻 𝗔𝗥𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗖 𝗟𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗱 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲𝘇𝗲𝗿 𝗜𝗜𝗜 𝗔𝗜𝗢 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗶𝗿𝗳𝗹𝗼𝘄.

Instead of running the fans at a constant full-speed setting through the hub, we configured them for motherboard-controlled PWM operation, allowing each fan to adjust its RPM based on system temperature and cooling demand.

🌡️ After the AIO Installation & Airflow Calibration:

🔥 CPU: 48°C → 38°C
🌡️ Motherboard: 37.5°C → 25.5°C
⚡ MOS: 35°C → 21.5°C

The result is a more balanced, temperature-controlled airflow setup, with each fan responding to the system's cooling needs.

A customer brought an EVGA RTX 3090 FTW3 Ultra 24GB GPU to NCR Computers in Sterling, VA after it suddenly developed a rattling noise. The GPU had been working normally until the problem appeared.

During testing, we found abnormally high GPU and hotspot temperatures. Stability and benchmark testing confirmed the temperature issue under load. We then took additional measurements directly on the GPU motherboard to identify the affected area.

We repaired the affected section of the GPU motherboard and applied fresh thermal putty and thermal paste to improve heat transfer.

❌ Fans A & B were not spinning
❌ The fan C was running at full speed
❌ Abnormal temprature

✅ All 3 GPU fans are spinning normally
✅ Rattling noise eliminated
✅ GPU temperature improved by 4°C
✅ Stability testing and benchmarking passed
✅ GPU returned to normal operation

This wasn't simply a fan replacement or thermal paste service. The repair required GPU motherboard-level troubleshooting and precision repair to identify and correct the underlying hardware issue.
